Yuri,

I had the similar problem as Sandy and I asked the same question here just few months ago. The answer was - use DynamicCurrentControl, and I think, that's the ticket here and would be easy to implement. In my case, my manager just told me disregard the whole idea and I did it differently...

>if (condition to force skipping)
> do case
> case lastkey()=5
> keyboard "{uparrow}"
> case lastkey()=24
> keyboard "{dnarrow}"
> otherwise &&eof(), bof(), others go here
> endcase
>endif
